Ex ignoring allergies

[As2161]

My little girl came back a few days ago from her dads. He knows I have a severe but allergy, I have a pen. However he has always said it doesn't really exist and I somehow made it up. Now I here he is giving my little girl nuts. Literally telling her she has to eat them. So far she has been ok, but I was told there can be allergies to different nuts so although the ones given may be ok in future they might not. What are my options? He is very unreasonable about health matters sadly.

speak to your solicitor?

Presumably your little girl does not have a nut allergy though?

Your DD doesn't have a known nut allergy at the moment? How old is she?

Have you been given specific advice from a health care professional about how to introduce nuts to your DD? If you have, can you get that in writing so that you can show it to anyone you may need to in order to try and force your ex to follow medical advice?

I've just kept her away from eating them in all honesty as didn't want her to have to have another blood test. I understand I probably will need to schedule one now sadly.

Is he hoping to bump you off by giving your dd nuts, so when she kisses you, you go into anaphylaxis shock?

I’d say solicitor too.

I'd suggest you get advice from your GP about your DD and nuts. Just because you have a nut allergy doesn't mean she will have and a blood test now will prove nothing.

Advice seems to be changing that early exposure to nuts can help avoid nut allergy in future.

That's really interesting advice. Thank you will check with gp.

How old is your DD?

She's 7 a few weeks ago

He isn’t ignoring her allergies as she doesn’t have any.

I am severely nut allergic and carry epi-pens, my DC have not inherited my allergy though I do understand that may change. Allergy specialists have told us not to restrict the DC's diets. It's not on that he's forcing your DD to eat nuts but you are overreacting

Ah ok. I assumed she might be a baby as you were taking about introducing nuts.

I think you need to talk to a specialist about allergies and what the best thing to do for your DD is. I don't see why a blood test would be the first thing that would need to happen. Plus for your own benefit you should probably find out about the best approach to exposing your DD to nuts.

I suspect the biggest issue would be for you, if your allergy is such that your DD coming home with packets of nuts in her pockets, or remnants of nuts in her clothing is going to trigger your allergy.

However if your DD is simply eating nuts at ex's house and not bringing traces of nuts home, and not allergic herself, a trip to the GP could put your mind at rest.

Thanks for all your help I will do that :)

Sorry but he is not ignoring her allergies. She does not have one.

Why are you forcing your allergy on to your daughter?
